The design of the structure, which is based on multiples of the 2.7-metre façade modules, along with the building’s shape, allow the building to be adaptable in its use as the needs of the neighbourhood change over time. Each of the towers incorporates a series of irregular setbacks, allowing for many terraces, both collective and private, while the extra corner windows provide impressive views to more of the building’s residents. The positioning of these setbacks is informed by light and wind studies. They also respond carefully to the building’s context, as it serves as a transitional point between the mostly residential buildings of Lake Side’s Courtyard and the office buildings of, among others, the administration of the Flemish Government.
